Sink repair in Ratton Village

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Open a window if you can

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Why repair rather than replace?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

See our full price list.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Widespread crazing
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we are called out for in Ratton Village

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Chips around the rim
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Cracks starting at the waste

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How to look after the finish
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Our hiring checklist

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
